Ah, me....another icon gone. I fear that our children will live in a world with no heroes, where the only moral thing that they see on television is the screen as it's being turned off, where people such as the good Captain are seen as relics of a bygone day that have no relevance in the modern world. Would that we had more such as he and his band of merry creatures to lead us once again through the sylvan glades of innocence where we may lay in the cool grass of our youth and listen once again to the stories that taught us truth, rightness, patience, tolerance, and basic, fundamental morality. Gone, but never forgotten. O Captain, my Captain...we already miss you.
